strchr()

Arguments:

s

The string that you want to search.

c

The character that you're looking for.

Library:

libc

Use the -l c option to qcc to link against this library. This library is usually included automatically.

Description:

The strchr() function finds the first occurrence of c (converted to a char) in the string pointed to by s. The terminating NUL character is considered to be part of the string.

Returns:

A pointer to the located character, or NULL if c doesn't occur in the string.

Examples:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main( void )
{
    char buffer[80];
    char* where;

    strcpy( buffer, "video x-rays" );

    where = strchr( buffer, 'x' );

    if( where == NULL ) {
        printf( "'x' not found\n" );
    } else {
        printf( "'x' found: %s\n", where );
    }

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Environment variables:

LIBC_STRINGS

On ARMv7 targets, you can use this environment variable to select the implementation for this function. The value is one of the following:

• cortex_a9 — optimized for the ARM Cortex-A9 processor; assumes that no unaligned access is supported.
• cortex_a9_aligned — optimized for ARM Cortex-A9; requires that unaligned memory access be enabled on the platform. If memory access is misaligned, this implementation falls back to the NEON version.
• cortex_a9_neon — optimized for ARM Cortex-A9 using NEON.
• generic — the default.
• krait — optimized for the Qualcomm Krait CPU.
• krait_neon — optimized for Qualcomm Krait using NEON.

Processes that register ISRs shouldn't use the NEON versions.
